Making room for mecanum_drive_controller #189

Closed arennuit closed 9 years ago

arennuit commented 9 years ago

Hi guys,

I am currently developping a mecanum_drive_controller which (as its name states) will take a twist as input and generate desired wheel velocities. From what I have seen this class will be rather close to diff_drive_controller. So I was thinking of factoring the common code out into a drive_controller class (from which diff_drive_controller and mecanum_drive_controller would derive). It does not look like a big issue, but I was wondering how you would welcome this proposition... If you consider its worth the effort, then I'll make a proposition in a fork of mine, otherwise no worries I'll do a completely separate package in a repo of mine.

Just let me know what you think.

Thanks,

Antoine.

Sorry, I wrote my issue in the wrong repo, it is now in ros_controllers: https://github.com/ros-controls/ros_controllers
